Buffalo - The Phoenix Foundation [VINYL]

The Phoenix Foundation's 2010 album features a number of the New Zealand group's most enduring songs, from the gently psychedelic drift of opener 'Eventually', the idiosyncratic title track (once covered by Lorde, pop pickers!), the sugar-sweet 'Flock of Hearts', pidgin-German 'Bitte Bitte' to the soaring melancholy swell of closing tracks 'Wonton' and 'Golden Ship'. It's a record that has well and truly stood the test of time. Featuring guest appearances from fellow musical travellers Connan Mockasin and Lawrence Arabia, 'Buffalo' took the band on quite a journey. Following its release in New Zealand in April 2010, the album found a home on one of the UK's finest indie labels Memphis Industries. Hugely acclaimed on its European release, The Phoenix Foundation headed over to these shores for a run of sold out shows, appearances on TV in the UK and Germany, including a coveted slot on 'Later... with Jools Holland', and saw them find a multitude of new fans including, but not limited, to a certain Jarvis Cocker.
